center

Description

This patch centers dmenu in the middle of the screen.

Previously this has been achieved through the xyw patch and a bash script to calculate the centered x and y positions. However, this is a slow and overly complex way which is hard to integrate into programs which call dmenu directly, eg surf or tabbed. On the other hand, This small standalone patch is instantaneous and works globally.

With dmenu-center-20200111-8cd37e1.diff, you can use -c to center dmenu.

With dmenu-center-20240616-36c3d68.diff, you can not only center dmenu but also adjust its height.
